Johnson counter or Switch Tail or Twisted Ring Counter is a synchronous counter. An n-bit ring counter circulates a single bit among the flip flops to provide n distinct states. The number of states can be doubled if the shift register Continue reading →

Ring counter is a synchronous counter since all the flip flops are clocked simultaneously. A ring counter is a circular shift register with only one flip flop being set at any particular time, all others are cleared. The single bit Continue reading →

A counter is a sequential circuit that counts in a cyclic sequence. It is essentially a register that goes through a predetermined sequence of states upon the application of input pulses. There are two types of counters – Synchronous Counter Continue reading →
